Random Nails of the Day

Hi folks!

Press SamplePurchased by Me

With all of the reviews I do, I hardly have time to share the manicures I actual wear during the day.  I figured I could group them all together and share them here once and a while.  I got this idea from my friend Jen at AggiesDoItBetter.com.  This is collection of manicures that I actual wore for the day during the past month that haven't been posted on my blog or social media yet.  Usually, these photos get tossed into a folder on my phone for times when I don't have anything new to post.    But they want to be seen!  So let's give them their own time in the spotlight :)

Disclaimer...some of these polishes may be older, limited edition, discontinued or otherwise hard to find.  I apologize if you fall in love with something and have a hard time finding it.  But by checking out these makers, I am sure you will see something you will love even if you can't find one of these specific polishes.  Get ready for #notd spam!

Contrary Polish River Market

*taps the mic* Is this thing on?

Sorry to have abandoned you in the www, readers! Life has been a bit crazy this year. I hope you  have all been well and stayed entertained and engaged with the lovely Bec and Co. It doesn't even bruise my ego not being missed since your were in such capable hands :)

For today's post I have this lovely purple shimmer from Contrary Polish. River Market was on my wish list for quite some time. In my quest for long-time lemming Takko Lacquer Kiss the Sky, I became....well....obsessed with beautiful purple polishes. In polish and Pokemon, I gotta catch em all! This one does not disappoint. Formula is good, I have three coats of squishy goodness plus topcoat in the swatch pics below.

 And, because I couldn't resist...macro!

Have a great week, my polished pretties! Indie Amy out.

Contrary Polish Bright Night!

Today I have yet another indie polish. I'm a huge fan of hand-made polishes and love my first Contrary Polish.

Bright Night is a gorgeous dark blue polish with blue microglitter and a jelly finish. It's beautifully pigmented, opaque in two coats and very easy to apply. It dries relatively quickly but needs a coat of top coat to make it shiny and super glittery.

If you're a blue fan this should definitely be on your wishlist! It was an impulse buy for me and I'm so glad I did.

Contrary Polish is currently only available on Llarowe where a 0.5 oz bottle retails for $11.
